I agree with you quite alright, but where I’m getting it confused is to the part you said long term investment is about portfolio growth because there’s a possibility that an investor can grow his portfolio within a period of one year or less, should that be the case then it still might be putting the person in the level of long term investor and this might go a long way to misleading newbies only to grow their portfolio within a short time and they might feel fulfilled that they’ve invested in long term and might want to sell off having noticed a little profit in their portfolio.
We can never call a person a long-term investor by looking at his portfolio. There are many people who own a lot of money who can buy 5-6 bitcoins in a day if they want. If they buy so many bitcoins in one day and sell them the next day after seeing some profit, then we can never call them long-term investors. Long-term investment is an investment period of 5 to 10 years.
Yes, I agree to all that you said here because long term investor boils down to timeframe not by your stash of Bitcoin. Anyone that bought a huge stash of Bitcoin and sold it off within the timeframe of 10 years below, is more of a trader, trading his Bitcoin for minimal gains because a real long term investor will first of all not even contemplate selling his holdings no matter how huge it is, if he is still in his accumulation journey and if he has not gotten to that over accumulation status yet. This is the only scenario that will compel a real Bitcoin investor to sell his holdings, not because he feels like his stash of Bitcoin is already to big, so he may decide to sell it off, that's a trader, trading his Bitcoin for minimal gains, not an investor.
